Project scope
Our client’s challenges
In a renowned Swiss private bank, the manual management of access rights by the operational team increases the workload and operational risk, leading to employee frustration.
- High workload and dependence on many manual processes within the operational teams.
- Work overload of teams preventing their involvement in improvement initiatives.
- Historic lack of investment in process improvement from the company
- Resistance to change within the team.
Our Solution
As a unique project manager, our mission was to simplify and optimize operational processes to lighten the workload and reduce risks, while improving the employee and client experience.
- We coordinated cross-functional stakeholders and closely monitored the operational team to identify, frame, and implement improvement initiatives.
- Utilizing Agile/Lean team analyses, we pinpointed optimization opportunities and fostered ongoing collaboration to unearth further potential enhancements.
- Initiatives were categorized by type of workload (project, process, execution) and managed within JIRA (project board, Kanban, backlog) to prioritize tasks efficiently and track execution progress.
- Managing deadlines while facilitating effective communication within and between teams, as well as ensuring regular reporting to management, was integral to our approach.
